lap band

I used to be anti lap band because the initial trials in the US were very disappointing on weight loss and had ak ln high incidence of reoperation for complications. Changes in technique and further study have shown better results now. I think lap bands are appropriate for BMI less than 50, and people who are overweight primarily due to problems with portion control. People who eat lots of sweets will fail with the lap band.
